So here’s the deal, I am having a tough week. I am trying to emerge from a funk clouded with stress,  unknowns, anxiety, and frustration. Yesterday was especially tough as I had to move from the denial segment of my week straight into acceptance. I vowed to sleep it off and start today fresh. I woke up, got the kids to (summer) school, worked out and was off to a great start. Then every time I thought about writing I’d get caught  up in the tornado spinning inside my head. Usually writing helps to clear the fog, but this week all it is managing to do is frustrate the hell out of me. So I’m putting down the keyboard at least for today. It is a beautiful outside; my kids are in good moods; my brother is in town AND he brought me Garrett’s popcorn so I am signing out.  I’m gonna let the storm settle (kiddie) pool side. See you on the flip side.
